Hogwarts Card System.

Chapter 140 The secret room was opened!
The new recipes developed by Ted and the house-elves in the kitchen received unanimous praise from teachers and students at Hogwarts.

Even Dumbledore spoke at the end of the dinner, praising Ted for enriching the school menu and the house-elves for their hard work.

This is Great Britain, a food desert. Maybe these dishes will still be used a hundred years later.

The little wizards, with their bellies full of food, naturally applauded generously, and even the Slytherins started to applaud.

If nothing else, it was delicious.

Besides, when Ted talks about delicious food all the time, it seems like he's not exaggerating.

The banquet was coming to an end and even the desserts were almost finished.

Jerry looked at the plate in front of him and asked curiously, "Where's my last piece of cheese? Where's my huge piece of cheese?!"

Ron mumbled with a bulge in his mouth, "No, I don't know, I haven't seen it!"

Jerry: I smell it! Red Eyes on! Ron, die!

At the beginning of the meal, Ron, who was in low spirits because of his embarrassing chicken leg costume, now regained his usual liveliness and shouted, "Brother Jie, stop it!"

However, if you move Jerry's last cheese, then Jerry can't escape.
Finally, Jerry taught him: "Ron, eating everything will only harm you! You should eat less. My mother said that when people are hungry, they only have one worry, but if they are full, they will have countless worries."

Ron didn't know how he understood it, but he nodded very seriously.

……

The dinner was over and the little wizards were so exhausted that they could hardly move.

Everyone goes back to their own homes and mothers, and then lines up to go back to their own dormitories.

Ravenclaw and Gryffindor were on their way, and Ted and his team were going back to Ravenclaw Tower from the third-floor skywalk corridor. However, just as they reached the second floor, before the two teams parted ways, a cry of surprise suddenly came from the front.

On the wall of the corridor opposite the abandoned women's bathroom, a stiff cat was hanging upside down on a torch stand. It was Mrs. Norris!
And on the wall, there was a line of words written in an unknown red pigment: Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets - Has Been Opened!
Ted and his friends pushed through the crowd and came to the front.

Ted squinted his eyes and found that the words on the wall were different from the original book.

Is this because of the different timelines, or is it because of the butterfly effect brought about by my appearance?

It seems that we still need to make more preparations!

The system suddenly moved:
"Ding~ Triggering the task:

【Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets (Red)】

For thousands of years, a terrifying ghost called the Chamber of Secrets Monster has been floating in the sky of Hogwarts. Find it, destroy it, and restore peace to the school.

Objective: Find the monster in Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets and kill it.

Reward: 1500 experience points, random card.

You know how dangerous it is, right?"

Red quality mission! Same as last year's seven-level mission!

But it’s one level lower than [Ravenclaw’s Chamber of Secrets (Purple)]…

The young wizards were stunned by the scene before them and began to whisper to each other.

Filch would always appear at this time. His hoarse voice would be heard from the other end of the corridor: "What are you doing? What are you doing! Why are you gathering in the corridor? Go away! Who dares to stand in the corridor...ah~~~"

He saw Mrs. Norris hanging upside down on the torch stand and immediately let out a howl.

Although he was very mean to his students - because of jealousy.

But to Mrs. Norris, they were like family members who depended on each other for survival.

He opened his arms and wanted to hug Mrs. Norris, but he didn't dare to touch her, and his hands began to tremble.

Many girls have turned their heads away, unable to bear to watch any longer.

However, Filch suddenly turned his head, pointed at Ted, and shouted in a crying voice: "It's you! It must be you! You wanted to take Mrs. Norris away from me! You did this when you failed! Give me back my Mrs. Norris!!!"

Seeing that Filch was losing control of his emotions and was about to grab Ted's collar, Neville had to step forward to stop Filch.

But Ted just pointed his finger, and Filch's hands suddenly became cold and covered with a thin layer of ice.

Filch trembled and took a few steps back, looking at Ted with a complicated look. Jealousy was mixed with fear. Ted said: "Filch, you should know that I will never harm Mrs. Norris, and I never want to take her away from you. You have depended on each other for many years, and you will continue to depend on each other."

Filch shuddered. "Really? Swear! No, no, Mrs. Norris, it's, it's been..."

Ted comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not dead."

"Not dead? Really? It's not dead?!" The wrinkles on Filch's face trembled, and his expression was so complicated that it was impossible to express his emotions.

At this time, the students pushed aside and Dumbledore came with Professor McGonagall and others.

"Principal, Principal Dumbledore! Can you please take a look at Mrs. Norris?" Filch placed all his hopes on the white-bearded old Dumbledore.

Dumbledore glanced at the students around him, then glanced at the words on the wall, then moved closer to the stiff Mrs. Norris and looked at her carefully.

Filch behind him was already at a loss for words, "Principal, Epiphany said it's not dead, so it's not dead, right?"

Dumbledore nodded. "It is still alive."

"That's great, that's great. But, but, why is it like this?"

"It's like some kind of curse." Dumbledore turned to look at Ted and asked softly, "How do you know that Mrs. Norris is not dead?"

Ted looked into Dumbledore's eyes, which were as deep as the night sky, and his ability to block his mind started to work automatically.

He said, "Professor, you forgot that I have come into contact with some Ravenclaw research, and I have a certain ability to judge whether a life still has thoughts. Although Mrs. Norris looks like she is dead, she still has a very weak mind."

Dumbledore nodded: "That's right...Okay, students go back and rest first."

Then he led the professors to the nearest office, Lockhart's classroom, for a meeting.

When he knocked on the door, Lockhart, wearing violet pajamas and a facial mask, was stunned when he saw Dumbledore and his group standing at the door. Then he immediately became happy: "Are we going to have a pajama party? Great, leave it to me, I'm the best at having a pajama party!"

Everyone: Pajama party? You guys are having a blast!
Ted and the others didn't know what happened in Lockhart's office later.

But it simply means that the comprehensive recovery potion made from Mandrake can cure Mrs. Loris.

Lockhart boasted that he could make this potion in his sleep, but in fact this was the first time he had heard of it.

He also said he could help Professor Sprout take care of the mandrakes, but Sprout said that there were many dangerous plants planted in the greenhouse, and if he entered without permission and died, he would only have himself to blame.

Lockhart stopped talking immediately.
In the end, Snape couldn't help but mentioned the matter of the Chamber of Secrets, asking Dumbledore to make preparations in advance and not let the students fall into danger.

Lockhart listened from the side and only understood half of what was said. He was so excited!

Lockhart: Got it, got it, got it!
After two months of teaching, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He thought he could improve his reputation and even get a reputation as the teacher of the Boy-Who-Lived, but who knew that he ended up making a fool of himself.

Now, there’s finally a gimmick!
At that moment, Lockhart had already thought of the title of his new book: "Dealing with the Chamber of Secrets Monster"!
……

Ron looked a little sick when he returned to the dormitory.

Jerry slapped him on the back so hard that he almost slapped out the chicken legs and Kung Pao chicken for dinner.

Jerry said, "We Mouse-ears have a saying - a depressed butt can't fart happily. Cheer up, my friend!"

Neville on the side scratched his face and said, "Jerry, what you say always makes sense, but... it just has a bit of flavor."

Hermione asked Ted if he knew what the Chamber of Secrets was.
Ted wanted to say he didn't know.

However, Hermione suddenly stopped, grabbed Ted's face, and stared into his eyes: "Ted, do you know what the Chamber of Secrets is?"

"Cough cough cough!" Oh my god, the psychic almost broke through his defense and was discovered through the window of his mind.

Ted coughed a few times and whispered, "Hermione, do you remember what I went through last Christmas?"

Hermione suddenly realized: "You mean..."

She looked around and whispered, "You mean Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets?"

"That's right. I saw relevant records in Ravenclaw's diary..."

Ravenclaw wrote: Slytherin built a secret room underground to train students from wizarding families that he favored, and Gryffindor also built a secret room to hide things. These two naive men! No, I have to build one too...
